Chapter 269 The veteran becomes suspicious and lures you into a trap!
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"It's just as the commander expected, it's just Dayu's bluff!"
"Send out scouts quickly to report to the commander. There are no more than a thousand people ambushed on both sides of the canyon."
Zhao Kai's face was full of joy, his eyes were looking towards the endless plains outside the canyon, and his expression was full of excitement: "Perhaps, the first step for Da Yan to fight for world supremacy is to start with this general!"
"Pass my command to the general and run towards King Yu's city at full speed."
"General!"
The deputy general immediately glanced at Zhao Kai with a worried look on his face, and whispered softly: "The commander-in-chief ordered us to cross the canyon. If we send troops without permission, if the commander-in-chief investigates afterward..."
"Hahaha!"
Zhao Kai smiled arrogantly and said meaningfully: "If we attack Dayu's capital, we will not only be innocent, but we will also be granted the title of marquis and prime minister."
"We will be praised by the historians of Da Yan, respected by the people of Da Yan, and remembered by thousands of future generations. Our achievements will be passed down orally for hundreds of thousands of years in the future generations of Da Yan."
"Our descendants will be superior to others because of our feat today!"
"Everyone, do you dare to join me and fight into King Yu's city?"
Zhao Kai raised his gun and turned his horse's head, looking back at the group of cavalry behind him, his eyes full of high fighting spirit!
"kill!"
"Enter Dayu and take the royal city directly!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
Shocking shouts of killing rang out, and Zhao Kai immediately gave the order to kill in the direction of King Yu's city.
Ten thousand Qingqi ran wildly for several miles until they reached a mountain pass. Gradually, Zhao Kai's speed slowed down, and even his body began to tremble uncontrollably and he kept rubbing his eyes.
"General...general...what a big black cloud!"
"Black cloud..."
Zhao Kai's face was extremely pale. Looking at the flags fluttering in front of him and the dark army standing in formation, he couldn't help feeling chilly in his heart.
"withdraw!"
"Dayu ambushes here!"
"Quickly withdraw your troops and inform the commander immediately that Dayu is setting up an ambush here!"
Zhao Kai immediately shouted low and was about to turn the horse's head, but suddenly his body froze. At some point, these ten thousand cavalry were surrounded by groups, with the shadows of Yu's army in all directions, vast and boundless!
"kill!"
…
Beyond the canyon.
"Report!"
"General Zhao has sent a message that there are no more than a thousand ambushes on both sides of the canyon. Commander, please quickly move your troops across the canyon!"
"good!"
Chen Zhaochong's eyes showed a hint of joy, and he immediately turned his horse's head, looking at the excited generals, and said solemnly: "Generals, our success is imminent. This battle, we will definitely be recorded in the annals of history, and our name will be passed down through the ages!"
"Our glory will live with heaven and die with our country!"
"As long as we capture Dayu's capital, the entire Eastern Continent will be exposed to my Dayan's iron hoof."
"Long live Dayan!"
Chen Zhaochong shouted loudly, and all the generals in front of him raised their weapons and shouted "long live". Following him, the overwhelming sound of the black army behind him became louder and louder than the waves!
"Long live!"
"Long live!"
"Long live!"
"The generals obey the order, pass through the canyon at full speed, and attack the capital of King Yu directly!"
"As you command!"
This canyon is three to four miles wide and stretches for seven or eight miles. The canyon alone can accommodate tens of thousands of troops.
Chen Zhaochong personally led the Chinese army and rushed toward the valley in a mighty manner. Arrows rained down from both sides of the canyon, and crouching figures could be vaguely seen above, no more than two thousand people at most.
A figure stood on it, calmly watching the army below enter the valley. There was no wave on his face, but he slowly turned around and looked at the generals waiting in front of him.
"Generals!"
"My country, Dayu, paid a price of one hundred thousand men in exchange for this good opportunity. His Majesty's eldest son, the God of War of Dayu, His Highness King Sheng also died in the hands of this enemy army!"
"My commander ordered us to bury this army at all costs."
"As you command!"
All the generals have high morale, their eyes are shining with hatred, they clasp their fists tightly and are eager to try.
"Report!"
"Commander, Da Yan's 10,000 vanguard army has been completely wiped out. His Highness King Yong led a light cavalry to come to the rescue."
"King Yong..."
Li Jin didn't have much favorable impressions of this dandy prince whom he hadn't met for many years. If he hadn't been responsible for the incident last year, he would have returned to Beijing and asked His Majesty to seek justice.
However, Li Jin also felt a sense of curiosity after hearing the rumors about this dude in the past year.
What exactly had he gone through to make such a big change happen in just over half a year?
"Commander, all Da Yan's former troops have entered the valley."
"Not in a hurry!"
Li Jin lightly grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist with his right hand, and stared calmly at the dark army below. He stepped forward and sat down on a piece of bluestone.
"Are you all ready?"
"Commander, everything is ready!"
"let's start!"
…
Chen Zhaochong was sitting in the center of the army, his eyes constantly looking towards both sides of the canyon, and there was a faint feeling of something bad in his heart.
For some reason, he always felt uneasy and looked forward. The former army was almost out of the valley, and the overall situation should have been decided at this time.
"Commander, what's wrong with you?"
A counselor looked at Chen Zhaochong's serious look and asked with concern.
"I don't know why, but I always feel uneasy."
"If you think about it carefully, something is indeed wrong."
"oh?"
The advisers of the think tank all frowned slightly, and only heard Chen Zhaochong speak slowly: "Our army attacked Xuanjian Pass day and night, and it took three days and nights, but during these three days, Dayu Wangcheng did not send a single soldier to help!"
"This is the first doubt!"
"Now that Xuanjian Pass has been broken, it stands to reason that Yu Wangcheng must have received the news at this time, but until now, there is still no movement, as if there is no worry at all."
"This is the second doubt."
"Xuanjian Pass is built on the peaks, and there is a situation where one man guards the pass and ten thousand men cannot open it. It stands to reason that Dayu should fight to the death to protect it, because once Xuanjian Pass is lost, it will be flat from then on to Yu Wangcheng, and there will be no danger to defend!"
"But Dayu's reaction is really too calm."
"If I were the one in power in Dayu, I would rather send out the imperial army or even the city defense camp to defend Xuanjian Pass!"
Chen Zhaochong expressed his doubts, and several advisers beside him also fell into deep thought.
"General, we are not the only ones who have broken through the pass in Dayu now. Their movements are due to the pressure from the more than 100,000 troops of Donghuai, and the rebellion of Lu Kan in Huainan has just been pacified."
"The troops in the capital of Dayu should not dare to move lightly to prevent accidents."
"They would rather lose Xuanjian Pass than leave their hinterland empty, not only to guard against us, but also to prevent the King of Huai from going north and Donghuai from going west."
"No!"
Chen Zhaochong shook his head slightly: "Huainan has 100,000 new troops of Dayu stationed, and the King of Huai cannot go directly to the capital. The main force of Dayu's national defense army is also rushing to the east, so it can be foolproof!"
"King Yu should not be so stupid. Besides, no matter whether it is Donghuai or Huainan, their threat is far from comparable to that of Dayan!"
"What went wrong?"
...
I heard that everyone ran away... Hey...
